English schoolmaster John Tyson has had a forty-year obsession with the Kanjiroba Himal in north-western Nepal. He has climbed this mountain again and again. The last time he reached its peak was in 1998, at the age of 70. This is his story - a film of excitement, challenge and mountain exploration.
James Tyson Productions/Off the Fence
Join Ragnar Axelsson on his journey as he visits friends made through his long career. His passion is for documenting the fast deteriorating lifestyles of the North. We visit farmers in Iceland and the free spirited hunters of Greenland. Here, we meet people who are so intertwined with nature that they are more afraid of government officials than of a starving polar bear looking for prey!
Decorated veteran Robert Gallimore travels to Pakistan to explore a country whose status as ‘the most dangerous country in the world’ threatens to overwhelm its rich and ancient history. Gallimore challenges the western narrative, and unveils the unexpected, unexplored side of, if not the most dangerous, perhaps the most misunderstood country in the world.
Conscious Captivation
The film illuminates the multiple meanings ordinary people as well as critics, curators and philosophers attach to portrait photographs and - through the prism of these meanings - portrays the singular career of Yousuf Karsh, the ultimate mythmaker.
Productions Grand Nord
Mother to daughter, generation after generation. For over 2,000 years, the women of Jeju Island off South Korea have survived by becoming haenyos (female sea divers). We follow these women, aged 45-85, as they dive deep into the ocean. With only lead belts and a sharp knife, they skilfully pick abalone and octopus. These are the last mermaids.
